Just wondering why this is. I Noticed at 7k rpm i get a buzzer and the car just doesnt want to go anywhere. I can feel that it can keep going but the computer just won't let it. It's set as the auto's redline on the gauge where as the manuals go to 7.5-8 IIRC. Is there a way I can change that?

I am in no position to get a manual so this option is out.

Probably just a function to keep the torque converter from freaking out due to...some damned black-magic ******* thing they do.

I have found it is not hard to go over 7K, if you are boosting hard and accelerating fast, especially if you are using the 'hold' feature, I can easily get 7400, sometimes 7600 rpm. Yeah, it starts beeping at me at 7000 but I sometimes ignore it...lol!

 

I constantly utilize the hold function but it feels like i hit a brick wall every time it gets to the red. it feels exactly like hesitation but i know its the computer.

 

Sounds like your rev limiter is working a bit better than mine. Really it is kind of academic, you really aren't making any more ponies at 8K over 7K.

 

Off topic here but I've always been curious as to how well auto fd's handle engine mods. Being a 2nd gen auto owner i've always been told the auto won't handle much more than stock hp/torque. But I do know many auto fd's are modded.

 

i can get my auto without hold to 7500. i let off when this happens though
